Baylor's last visit to the Cotton Bowl in 1981

   This will be Baylor's third appearance in the Cotton Bowl Classic and its first since 1981. That one didn't go so well for the Bears. It was a 30-2 loss to Alabama, but this partial video of the broadcast is a hoot.
   The game featured a pair of Hall of Fame coaches in Alabama's Bear Bryant and Baylor's Grant Teaff. It also featured one of the all-time great players in Baylor linebacker Mike Singletary.
   But check out the broadcast booth before the game with legendary play-by-play man Lindsey Nelson and Dallas Cowboys great Roger Staubach wearing ten-gallon hats. Yee-ha!
